Lucky skill

A lucky skill (Japanese: ポテンシャル Potential) is a game mechanic in Pokémon Masters EX that was introduced in update 1.7.0. Lucky skills are additional passive skills that can be unlocked by using Lucky Scrolls and Lucky Cookies. Lucky Scrolls and Cookies can be obtained as various rewards at the Battle Villa.

Mechanics

The slot for the lucky skill is unlocked using Lucky Scrolls. The number of Lucky Scrolls required is equal to the sync pair's base potential (e.g. a 3★ sync pair requires three lucky scrolls). Prior to ??? Lucky Skills could only be unlocked when a sync pair reached level 80.

The player can then use a Lucky Cookie to obtain the skill itself, with different Lucky Cookies providing different lucky skills. The lucky skill is chosen at random from a pool of possible skills, and cookies with a higher ★ have a higher chance of providing more useful skills.

If the player uses a Lucky Cookie on a sync pair which already has a lucky skill, the player will be able to choose to keep the original lucky skill or replace it with the skill obtained from the newly consumed Lucky Cookie.

Chewy Reduces damage against a certain type
Deluxe Random lucky skill.
Guaranteed Certain guaranteed lucky skill.
